Yesterday, iPhone 4 OS was announced, and I’m very excited about the possibilities that multi-tasking presents, but I’d like to know more about it. I tried to watch the keynote yesterday, in Safari, and alas, no dice. I’m really not sure what this error even means but I know I’m running 10.6.3 with all the current updates.

I’ve been absent for the last few weeks as my penultimate quarter of undergrad is coming to a close I’ve been working hard to finish up my capstone proposal which was presented today (3.5.10). Here’s a screen shot of my presentation about 15 hours from finality. Soon I’ll get the final presentation uploaded.

The other day I saw this great post over at My Funny Eye about bed jumping and this past Tuesday, (on our second consecutive snow day, and for that matter the second consecutive Tuesday off from school) Al came into my room and had an impromptu bed jumping session. After the third jump/flip I got out my camera and tried to document our jumping as best I could. These are a few of favorite shots.

Last Tuesday was the first snow day I’d had in college in a very long time (maybe only the second, I don’t recall) but it was a magical day, featuring an extensive snowball fight, snow jumping pictures, and fantastic hot chocolate. I haven’t played like that in a good while and I’m really happy with most of the pictures (click on any of the pictures above and will take you to the photoset on my flickr). I’m finding more and more about my camera that I really like, I wonder what other things I can buy/add to my camera to make it do even more? I’m pondering buying another lens(es?) or perhaps some filters? I hardly know how to use my camera now, but I’m feeling good about my learning. Also, big thanks to JV for taking some pictures of me that turned out really nice. I like being behind the camera, but it’s nice to have some pictures of yourself too.

There are many more pictures up at my flickr page

This weekend was highlighted by a big party thrown at my house, where I had a good time, despite some idiot boys who got too drunk and were not being fun. Friends of friends of friends. Saturday was a full day of cleaning and working with D, Syl, and Tracy on Syl’s ukulele bag project followed up by some tasty Indian with the girls and Kandy. Sunday was easy and lazy, which was nice until somehow that afternoon I managed to get sick and haven’t been quite able to shake it yet, although I’m feeling alright as I write this (Tuesday afternoon (so late)).

Also Cooper came to stay with us this weekend (he’s that gorgeous golden-doodle in the photos), his parents were away and we happily babysat.

Every once in a while, I’ll get this error message while watching something on Hulu. I willingly watch the ads on Hulu, as I rarely am able/ready to watch tv shows when they are originally broadcast. I wish that Hulu would not make me feel bad about their inability to provide me with a commercial.

Also just wanted to mention some of the shows I’ve been enjoying lately (not all on Hulu) (in no particular order)

The Office (NBC)
Parks & Rec (NBC)
30 Rock (NBC)
Heroes (NBC)
Leverage (TNT)
Nurse Jackie (SHO)
Californication (SHO)
NCIS:LA (it’s so cheesy but I like it) (CBS)

Also also, the Olympics start Friday, I’m quite excited to see some speed skating and hockey.

So I think I fell in love with In Design tonight. After years of being frustrated by the program and how it didn’t, and still doesn’t, behave like Photoshop and Illustrator, I think I have gotten a grasp on how to quickly move around and somewhat painlessly manipulate and create. Here is the title page for the first of my two capstone (senior thesis) proposals. Will show more of this after I present tomorrow afternoon. Also I think I get a free pass today. It’s 6:39 AM and I haven’t slept yet today. Who’s ready for the weekend? This guy.

I was watching a Lil’ Wayne music video today. There are two reasons for this, the first is that I am humored by his antics and his character, and secondly I actually like some of his “music”. I recently watched a documentary about Lil’ Wayne, through most of which he was drinking ‘syzurp’ (actually DXM) mixed with root beer or vitamin water out of a styrofoam cup. I, for one, hate styrofoam cups and avoid them as much as I can, but when I see someone else with one I wonder if they’re trying to do like Lil’ Wayne and robo-trip on the sly or in public. I took some screen shots while watching that music video earlier and here they are.
